Autorenporträt

Charlotte Bailey is an award-winning journalist and author of the critically acclaimed Vampire Boys, published in 2022. She began her aviation career building special-shaped hot-air balloons. However, a love of fixed-wing flight prompted a sidestep into writing and she has worked on titles worldwide, as well as learning to fly a Piper Supercub. Alongside her writing work, she helps crew for the last airworthy ex-RAF Vampire in the world, the T.11 WZ507 - a venture the heritage and history of which she describes as an "essential element" to preserve.
